"Your Highness, everything went well. Cai Qi and his wife have been imprisoned." Chi Zhang bowed and reported.

Chu Heng, who everyone thought was still drunk and dreaming, was now sitting at the table, drinking tea slowly with a cold look in his eyes.

He took out a token from his sleeve pocket and said, "Go find Chu Ze's people and ask them to rescue the people. Our people will secretly help them return to Beijing."

This token was given to him by Chu Ze when he left Beijing.

He said that if we find any evidence against Wei Tiankuang, we can ask his people for help.

The Cai Qi couple is Wei Tiankuang's biggest handle, and Chu Zeding wants it very much.

Chu Ze has planted more than one or two chess pieces in the Wei family army, which is enough to confirm the relationship between Cai Qi and Chu Ze.

"Yes!"

The misty morning air was cool and comfortable. The dawn light made the military camp hazy, and the sky was also a colorful morning glow.

When the soldiers who had just returned from their hangover heard about what had happened last night, their heads suddenly became much clearer.

"General, is there any misunderstanding here? Admiral Cai has followed you for decades and will not betray you."

"Yes, we suspected no one but him."

"General, maybe he was deceived by a woman, he knows nothing..."

Wei Tiankuang raised his hand and everyone immediately fell silent.

"This general will make his own judgment, no need to say more."

No one dared to say more, as they all knew that their general was extremely cautious and suspicious. If they said a few more words, they would get themselves involved, which would not be worth the loss.

When they came out of Wei Tiankuang's study, everyone was still talking in low voices.

"Do you think he really betrayed the general?"

"It's hard to say. Think about it, how much Mr. Cai loves his wife. For his wife, maybe..."

"How foolish! He gave up his bright future for a woman."

"I don't think so. Old Cai may look reckless, but he is still clear-headed when it comes to important matters."

As a few people were discussing in low voices, they saw Jiang Xiubai coming out of the study.

"Deputy General Jiang, you didn't go drinking last night. Can you tell us what happened?"

"The general will not let any traitor go, nor will he wrongly accuse a good person." Jiang Xiubai said only this and strode away.

"This Deputy General Jiang has a bad temper."

"Now that Cai Qi is gone, he is unrivalled."

"It's true that the new generation pushes the old generation forward. Deputy General Jiang is a capable man, so it's only natural that he has a bit of temper..."

There is indeed affection between the generals of the Wei family army. After all, they have fought side by side for many years.

But when it comes to their own interests, everyone shuts up and goes about their own business.

The sky was dark, and the mountains and valleys were indistinguishable. Only the evening breeze blew past and the flags waving in the military camp.

A dozen dark shadows shuttled through the military camp, and they were obviously very familiar with the camp.

The two soldiers outside the prison were knocked down silently, leaving two men in black outside to provide support, while the rest went to the prison.

"Quick! Someone is breaking into the prison!"

The shout broke the silence of the night, and a group of Wei family secret guards rushed out of the prison. They were obviously ambushed long ago, and the two sides started fighting in an instant.

Just when the men in black were having a hard time, another group of men in black appeared from nowhere. Each of them had great martial arts skills, not inferior to the Wei family's secret guards at all.

Chu Ze's people were surprised for a moment, but when they saw that the person coming was a friend and not an enemy, they quickly became alert.

The masked Shan Lan rushed in quickly and cut the cell chain with a sword.

"Come on!"

Su Jiuniang sat in the corner, not even looking outside.

Cai Qi was surprised, but did not move.

If he left, the charge of collusion with King Rui would be completely confirmed.

Chi Zhang chased after them, and seeing that the two did not move, he said to Su Jiuniang in a cold voice: "If you want to avenge your parents and relatives, leave and go to the capital to file a complaint! Prince Rui will help you!"

Su Jiuniang finally came back to her senses and stood up quickly.

"Persuade Cai Qi to go with you. He is the best witness to incriminate Wei Tiankuang."

Su Jiuniang paused and looked at Cai Qi, who was also looking at her with a painful expression.

Su Jiuniang said in a hoarse voice: "If you want me to forgive you, just follow me."

"I cannot betray the General."

Su Jiuniang sneered and touched her belly: "So do you want me to die with the child?"

Cai Qi's eyes widened: "You! You are pregnant?!"

As he spoke, he got up from the ground, and the pain on his face was replaced by joy.

Shan Lan couldn't bear to see them dawdle, so he came in and grabbed the two of them: "If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave!"

Chi Zhang and Shan Lan escorted Cai Qi and his wife out.

When they arrived outside the cell, they saw Wei Tiankuang and a group of soldiers staring at the cell door with a sneer.

"Cai Qi, it seems that the general was not wrong in accusing you! You are really a traitor!" Someone in the Wei family army shouted.

Cai Qi is now at a loss for words. He can't clear himself from the blame and he is too lazy to do so.

What he cares about most now is his wife and children.

Wei Tiankuang raised his hand and waved, and the soldiers behind him rushed forward.

Wei Tiankuang witnessed the abilities of these men in black and found that their skills were not inferior to those of the Wei family's secret guards.

He had spent a lot of energy in training a secret guard and didn't want any unnecessary sacrifices, so he picked up a knife and flew over.

When Chi Zhang faced off against Wei Tiankuang, he couldn't help but sigh at how strong this man was.

Although he is nearly 70 years old, his strength is still astonishingly powerful.

The sword and the knife clashed with each other, making a sharp "hissing" sound.

Shan Lan was busy protecting Cai Qi and his wife, and was unable to spare any time, so Chi Zhang was about to be defeated.

At this time, a man in black fell from the sky.
